The addition of Fred VanVleet, Dillon Brooks along with moving out younger players marks...
With Fred VanVleet joining the Rockets, Kevin Porter Jr. is still part of the picture as team looks to turn focus to winning over development.When the Rockets said they were moving on to “Phase 2” of their rebuilding — and said it again and again and again — they weren’t kidding. How far they have moved on became obvious this weekend.
The next stage began if not with the hiring of Ime Udoka to guide it then with this weekend’s wild overhaul of the roster. With that, it is time for the Rockets to demonstrate not just that they had a plan, but that it was a good one and they successfully executed it. But they did not make these moves to set up free agent shopping in 2025. After this weekend, 22 wins will not be an acceptable price paid to get somewhere else.
VanVleet in particular brings the smart, steady organization and decision-making that can make those around him better. It is not a coincidence that he played such a large part of success in college, the G League and the NBA. He also is the only All-Star to have changed teams as a free agent this summer.
